JPMorgan Increases Bitcoin ETF Holdings by 64%, Now Owns $343M in IBIT Shares

JPMorgan Chase recently disclosed holding 5.28 million shares of Blackrock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) exchange-traded fund (ETF), a 64% increase over its previously reported holdings in June.

According to the New York-based fintech firm’s most recent 13F-HR Institutional investment manager holdings report, published on the SEC website on Nov. 7, as of Sept. 30, the firm’s IBIT shares were worth $343 million.

Exchange-traded Funds are Crypto’s Institutional Entry Point

In the US, the regulatory approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January of 2024 represented a watershed moment for Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency market.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs, such as IBIT, are widely considered an important gateway for institutional investors to enter the cryptocurrency market because they provide access to modern digital assets without the need for custody. And, unlike futures ETFs, these holdings represent direct asset buys.

Prior to the regulatory approval and launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US, JPMorgan Chase was, arguably, among the largest detractors concerning the cryptocurrency market.

The company’s chairman and CEO, Jamie Dimon, made numerous disparaging comments concerning the validity of cryptocurrency as a real currency, going so far as to call Bitcoin a “fraud,” insisting the US government should “shut it down,” and associating cryptocurrency with criminal activity.

Dimon has since softened his stance. Not only has JPMorgan Chase embraced Bitcoin through IBIT, the rate at which the firm is increasing its exposure suggests that its high value institutional clients are as well.

In related news, Bitcoin ETFs recently broke a six-day outflow streak showing the first signs of recovery in nearly a week as Bitcoin BTC $102 270 24h volatility: 1.0% Market cap: $2.04 T Vol. 24h: $88.50 B declined by 16% over the course of the week. Still, as Coinspeaker reported on Nov. 6, BTC managed to cling to the $100,000 support level. As of the time of this article’s publication, it’s trading at $101,322.88.

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
